Just Got USA WC Tix!!!

[USsoccerLA]

Before you lock in those Portrugal tickets, keep this in mind:
1. Every team listed on the TST purchase page will not qualify for the World Cup. All of those tickets sold to Uzbeks will end up getting re-allocated to whoever qualifies-- possibly the US-- freeing up more tickets later.
2. The US Soccer Federation will still be having a lottery for its ticket allocation., they're just not sure when yet. Sign up for their mailing list at ussoccer.com to keep posted on this.
3. It's nice to spin the wheel and take a chance on nipping allocated tickets for Portrugal or Ireland, but why not wait and try for US tickets? Better to wait and get guaranteed seats than to hope for good luck.





Well actually I am guarantee those tickets unless if Portugal just ********s up their last games. I already have the confirmation and everything I really hope they end up in USAs group or at least they dont play games at the same time so i can go to a pub and watch them

I got TST 6 cat 2 today and have done no work since about 2:30pm EST. Everyone that I work with knows that I'm going to Germany. I had pretty much given up hope of going, but when I got the e-mail after I got back from lunch I was so happy. Now I just got to tell my Fincinal Management guy that I'm going to the WC and won't be saving all that money he was hoping I was going to do next year. So count a Florida girl in on going to Germany!!!

There's been a TST-6 Cat 1 available off and on for the past hour and its midnight EST

Albania is all green. So are a few other countries.

FIFA should open those seats up for those who can pay for the tickets :)

My guess is that allowing people to buy tickets to see Albania does not affect your ability to buy tickets to see a more likely qualifier.

Still emmeffing red for USA tix.

This is starting to worry me.

Might as well relax and wait for the next sales phase or the ussoccer.com sale. I think last week's availability was just an anomaly.

Got an email from the FIFA Ticket people yesterday confirming my change of passport number, this after initially supplying them with my Soc. Sec. #.

Now just need to get info. on wiring them the $$$.

FIFA warning about fake ticket lottery
7 September 2005
by OC 2006 FIFA World Cup

FIFA has warned the public about an email scam involving the promise of winning FIFA World Cup™ tickets through a special lottery.

According to the world football governing body, members of the public have been receiving emails informing them they have won tickets for the Germany 2006 finals via a FIFA World Cup lottery. However, FIFA stresses there is no lottery linked with next summer’s finals and that anyone receiving such an email should ignore it.
A FIFA spokesman said: “FIFA has been made aware of electronic notices sent to individuals regarding winnings made through a so-called FIFA World Cup lottery. FIFA wishes to clarify that neither FIFA, nor any of its subsidiaries or the Organising Committee for the FIFA World Cup are organising, endorsing or associated with any lotteries. FIFA wishes to advise all recipients of such notifications to disregard such communications.”

This is the response I got for the same question:

Single match tickets will be available during the third sales phase
from 12th of December, 2005 until 15th of January, 2006. More specific information about this third sales phase December, 2005 until 15th of January, 2006 as well as about for which country tickets will be available will be published directly before in a press release.

If you applied for tickets during one phase and did not receive any
tickets, your application will be deleted. The applications are valid for the
applicant as well as for the visitors mentioned in the application only for one sales phase. If you would like to apply again within a new phase, in order to simplify the data entry, you can log in with your E-Mail-address and password in the Customer Self Service area. Your personal data entered in a previous sales phase will be saved in there.

Yours sincerely

FYI

It is NOT first-come first-serve for the city-specific ticket phase.

I still haven't received my second email from FIFA with instruction on how to pay. I'm doing the band transfer from a US bank. Anyone else get info on this?

I'll wait patiently, though, since I know it's only a matter of time before USSF puts out their allocation.

[Thomas A Fina]

Same here.

It's killing me.

But you have to remember, the whole concept of what "a few days" signify in Europe and in America are two totally different animals. And that goes double if you're a New Yorker like myself.

At least that's what I tell myself.

[HSV Hooligan]

Maybe a few days just means at any point between now and when the tickets are mailed.

Tickets aren't even printed until January.
